PENGARUH WAKTU PERENDAMAN DALAM LARUTAN ASAM ASETAT (CH3COOH) TERHADAP KARAKTERISTIK FISIK DAN KIMIA GELATIN CEKER AYAM

Abstract

ABSTRACT

THE EFFECT OF SOAKING TIME IN ACETIC ACID SOLUTION ON PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF CHICKEN CLAW GELATIN. This study was conducted to determine the effect of soaking time in acetic acid solution(CH₃COOH) on physical and chemical characteristics of chicken claw gelatin. This study used Completely Randomized Design (CRD) the reatments were soaking time (12, 24, 36 and 48 hours) and four replicates of treatment. The result showed that the curing time  had no significant  effect (P> 0,05) to the gel strength and viscositas of gelatin, but it had significant effect (P<0,05) on rendemen and water content of gelatin. It was concluded that the chicken claw gelatin produced from soaking time 36 hours had the best physical and chemical characteristics.
